Getting Started - Collaborative Space

A Community of Practice requires A dedicated  24/7 online space for collaboration, discussion, archiving meetings and webinars, and sharing resources (such as Slack, Moodle, dedicated website, Dropbox, Office 365).

Collaborative technologies are constantly evolving and the community’s access to licenses and support may vary from year-to-year. For communities that are on-going (i.e., more than one school year) part of the planning process needs to include examining how the current technology is serving the work of the community and whether new solutions are emerging that might be more effective or efficient.

It is important to decide which collaborative space suits the group best and ensure that the members are confident in the use of this space.

The University has a number of tools that support collaborative ways of working, research these and find one that works for your COP
